Definitions

  • the invention relates to a Press with one Table system and feed system according to the preamble of the claim 1.
  • Such systems are used to make panels, for example Steel or aluminum sheet, positioned to feed a press, which a predetermined number of blanks cut out the board.
  • suitable feed means which one via gripping or other feed means Grasp the blackboard, the blackboard is gradually moved through Press moved through and during a standstill one Subjected to punching step.
  • the feed is usually done along two orthogonal axes because it is cheaper Material utilization an offset division on the Blackboard is chosen.
  • US-A-4 382 395 discloses a panel system which a feed carriage has two gripping tongs, which grasp the board on the back edge and gradually advance into the machine tool.
  • the feed is coupled to the movement of the machine tool in such a way that the feed takes place at a time when the tool is not closed and therefore outside the Working level.
  • the feed carriage travels to an exit or sheet transfer station back, in which he grabs the next board.
  • This is carried by a loading carriage from a table alignment station in the correct position in the table takeover position in which the panel is located immediately before the Tool is located.
  • the loading carriage moves under the feeder around the metal sheet in the takeover position.
  • the drive for the Loading carriage is usually designed so that the Always load the sled into the same slab transfer position brings regardless of their size and the die cut.
  • the transfer position corresponds to that Position of the sheet in which a first punching stroke is carried out becomes.
  • the gripping means of the second feed device along two orthogonal Axes to make the necessary according to the division of the board To be able to make punchings.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to create a press with a sheet feed and feed system that works without empty strokes of the press, precise alignment allowed a precise feed guaranteed and a lattice with minimal web width enables without Punching and punching on the rear and front edge.
  • the press according to the invention is based on one of DE-A-3841683 known press from the two seen in the feed direction rows of tools arranged one behind the other are.
  • the tools can be in the feed direction to each other aligned or gapped.
  • the system according to the invention uses two feed devices, the first of which is a panel from an alignment station in which the board is precisely oriented or is aligned to reference coordinates.
  • Essential to the invention is that the second feed device is the panel only takes over after the press has already had two or more Has performed punching strokes. This way, without idle strokes be driven. However, this means that the plates be pushed forward to the press in such a way that the last stamping step of a board coincides with that first punching step of the next sheet.
  • the board - precisely aligned - during the entire punching process in pliers on the massive, yet not punched out side of the board.
  • the last one Feed path of the sheet from a suitable feed means e.g. a roller feed. Since it is but only the last step can do all the necessary Corrections are made beforehand. So that can the last panel position by mechanical means in Tool instead of e.g. unsafe roller feed To be defined.
  • the pliers can be mounted on rigid mounts and from Spindles are moved so that a high number of cycles is obtained becomes. A clamping edge is not necessary because the feed tongs, who hold the board at the end of processing, are arranged outside.
  • the first feed device can return to the starting position by one next table in the alignment station. While of the return stroke, the gripping means are sunk by one Collision with the one subsequently entering the alignment station Avoid blackboard.
  • the second gripping means of the second feed device only grasp the panel after the first feed device the board already a few punching steps in the The press has advanced the return stroke of the second gripping means relatively short. This also makes a complete Punching operation guaranteed without idle strokes.
  • the drives from the first and second feed device are identified by a numerical Control controlled.
  • the numerical control enables a precise movement in time and space, so that even with an extremely unfavorable ratio of Sheet size and number of blanks an idle stroke is avoided.
  • the sheets are made with the help of guillotine shears cut from the strip material. This naturally results Tolerances in terms of panel length and angularity the cut edges.
  • at least two Sensors are provided which are transverse to the feed direction or axis have a predetermined distance from each other and grasp the front and back edges of a panel and give an appropriate signal.
  • the deviation of the front or trailing edge determined from the transverse axis she will in determining the correction factor for the numerical Control can be used as described above. Is the deviation from the exact transverse axis is too large, so that punching out is unavoidable, a stop signal can be generated become. Alternatively, a punch stroke can also be suspended to avoid punching out faulty die cuts.
  • the front edge of the board passes both sensors.
  • the switch-on edges of both sensors are in relation to the current position of the feed device brought. This position is with a Resolution of 0.01 mm by the measuring system of the NC control detectable. This means that the further feed can be made as required correct the measurement result.
  • the leading edge can be related overall brought the way to the tool become. So it is possible regardless of the absolute Length of the board the first punching position while driving adjust there so that no punching or punching occurs. Adjusting the first cutting position of the board in accordance with the response of the sensors via the The path still to be covered serves at a given distance the range of tools and thus the given web width of the Residual lattice, the upper limit for the angularity to be able to set as high as possible. Even with smaller ones Web width of e.g. 0.8 mm should only cover a few panels the limit comes to lie. The existing space between the tool rows are therefore used optimally. Would the panels in a fixed, non-customizable first control position a higher value for the web width be provided.
  • the sensors can be transverse to the feed direction or axis have a predetermined distance from each other and the front one and capture the rear edge of a board and a corresponding one Give signal.
  • the distance between the sensors is preferably only a little smaller than the width of the panels, to get a high measuring accuracy.
  • the numerical Control is a setpoint for the length of the board saved.
  • the an actual value for the panel length is calculated for both sensor signals.
  • By detecting the front or the rear Edge and the numerical control values determine the exact length of the board. For this are however, very sensitive sensors are required. Therefore proposed according to an embodiment of the invention that they are formed by laser light barriers.
  • the on the actual length determined as described above a table is compared with the target value, and from the The difference between the setpoint and actual value becomes a correction value for calculate the following feed steps.
  • the position of the feed device in which the leading edge is detected can be specified in relation to a fixed Value to be set as a result of the previous one Alignment of the panel expected for normal panel length becomes. Any deviation from this value shows one Deviation from the nominal board length.
  • the web widths within the panel to correct the overall panel length be used.
  • the control for the first feed device must be a Undergo correction if a changed length by the Sensors determined and a correction factor calculated has been. If a second feed device is used, which the panel from a first feed device takes over while already in the press, there is a similar change in the feed cut lengths, if a table length deviating from the nominal value is determined has been punched out on the rear Be avoided.
  • a stop signal can also be generated if one from the target / actual value comparison of the table length large deviation results, which is certainly too faulty would lead to die cuts.
  • the second gripping means are particularly short the second feeder back when after an embodiment of the invention, the board in the transfer position at the back of the board on opposite Capture sides laterally.
  • the feed device Before grasping a board by the gripping means of the first The feed device must reference the table with reference coordinates be arranged exactly. This happens in the Alignment station. The board must naturally be replaced by a suitable one Funds are brought into the alignment station. A third feed device is used for this purpose Sheet is conveyed from a loading station to the alignment station. According to one embodiment of the invention, the third Feed device two parallel by separate numerical controlled third actuators Conveyor belts with one driver each. The drivers are arranged so that one behind each one blackboard and the other in front of a blackboard.
